At the end of the 1970s, a bomb explodes near Copenhagen, and begins one of the most extraordinary cases in the history of crime in Denmark. When a second bomb explodes, it’s soon painfully clear that this explosion was not an isolated incident. These bombs fill the everyday life of Copenhagen’s residents with fear, leading everyone to ask themselves the same questions: Who is this terrifying bomber? Are they working alone, or are more people responsible for the explosions? Is this the work of one troubled person or a terrorist organisation? What is the motive behind the explosions? Part 1 of our 2-part exploration of the infamous Gladsaxe bombings that rocked Denmark in the 1970s.
